Background Information

What's special about it?

Nothing, unless you count it has 250+ surfing buffers.

How competitive is it?

Not really.

Strategy

How does it move?

True Surfing with precise wave intersection. I use modified DrussGT buffer system so it has 100 surfing buffers, 50 flatteners buffer and 100 non-firing wave surfing buffers.

How does it fire?

Play-It Forward gun, cluster size of 100 and uses following dimensions:

• Distance
• Velocity
• Relative Heading (Perpendicularity)
• Moving Direction (sign(lateral velocity))
• Angled distance last 2/4/8
• Wall forward/backward

What does it save between rounds and matches?

Nothing between matches.

Additional Information

Can I use your code?

Available under NPRL/2.1 per request.

Does it have any White Whales?

We'll see

What's the next for this robot?

Tweaks.

What other robot(s) is it based on?

• The buffer system is shamelessly copy from DrussGT.
• The precise wave intersection code modified from DrussGT.
• Wall distance/smoothing code is from Simonton (via DrussGT)
• KdTree (bullet power tree for non-firing wave surfing) and BinUtils are Rednaxela's
• Movement Predictor base very loosely on Apollon (not visible)
• The code is based on BasicSurfer.
• I learn a lot from Dookious too.
• I use ABC's Play-it-forward code as a base for my play-it-forward gun.
